Promises Are Easy Verse 1 You said you'd be there when the road got rough, Said I could lean on you when times got tough. You painted forever with words so sweet, Made it sound like nothing could break what we'd be. I held onto every word you said, Built my trust on the things you promised instead. But somewhere between “always” and “someday,” I learned that words can fade away. Pre-Chorus 'Cause anybody can say what you wanna hear, Anybody can swear they'll always be here. But when the moment comes and the road gets hard, That's when you find out who they really are. Chorus Promises are easy when the moment feels right, Easy in the morning, easy late at night. Easy to say forever when you're holding someone's heart, But a promise isn't proven when the saying starts. It's showing up when nobody sees, It's standing strong when it's easier to leave. Don't tell me what you'll do someday— A promise isn't spoken, It's kept day after day. Verse 2 You said, “I'll call,” but the silence stayed, Said, “I'll be there,” but you never came. There was always a reason, always something new, Always another explanation for what you didn't do. And I kept making room for the words you gave, While the actions told a different story every day. I finally stopped listening to what you said And started watching where your footsteps led. Pre-Chorus 'Cause anybody can make a promise in the light, But character shows up in the middle of the night. When there's nothing to gain and nobody will know, That's when a person's true colors show. Chorus Promises are easy when the moment feels right, Easy in the morning, easy late at night. Easy to say forever when you're holding someone's heart, But a promise isn't proven when the saying starts. It's showing up when nobody sees, It's standing strong when it's easier to leave. Don't tell me what you'll do someday— A promise isn't spoken, It's kept day after day. Bridge So don't promise me the moon, Don't swear you'll never go. Don't give me pretty words Just to soften the blow. Give me something stronger Than anything you say— Give me your word And then live it every day. Final Chorus Promises are easy when the moment feels right, But they're tested in the darkness, not the light. Anybody can say forever, anybody can make a vow, But what matters is what you do right now. It's showing up when nobody sees, It's keeping your word when nobody agrees. Don't tell me what you'll do someday— If you give me your word, Let your actions make it stay. Outro Promises are easy... Words are easy too. But I'll believe a promise When I see it lived through. Because love isn't what you say When everything's okay— A promise isn't spoken... It's kept day after day.
